Vessel: Grand Neptune - West Coast Arrival

JB335 · 06-14-2011, 10:16 AM

The truck left Port hueneme at 5am yesterday and arrived at Palm Springs BMW around 10am or so. I couldn't pick the car up till 4pm though.

spdy330 · 06-14-2011, 12:03 PM

Hope mine did not get damaged during shippment. My dealer is in Alhambra which is much closer than Palm Springs. According to my dealer it has not been released from the preperation center as of yesterday

.

I am glad someone received theirs already.

I am glad someone received theirs already. How it is compared to your 335i?

Maybe, I got called to pick up this Wednesday, I said i couldn't do it till saturday though.

spdy330 · 06-14-2011, 03:45 PM

Dealer just informed me that mine has still not been released from VPC. He said he is not sure what is going on but will let me know when he hears something. Doubt I will even have it tomorrow now but luck can happen.

I was told that "M" series cars take longer than non-M cars. Not really sure what the diffference would be.

What did you order?

spdy330 · 06-14-2011, 09:48 PM

Well maybe my dealer is correct then. Says M series take longer to get out than any other make. Not exactly sure why as they still have 4 wheels and 4 tires.

JB335 · 06-14-2011, 11:50 PM

There she is

The 1200 mile break-in is killin' me.

spdy330 · 06-14-2011, 11:53 PM

Congrats JB335. I hear ya with the 1200 mile service. Mine will probably take 3 months to get there.

^Thanks Andy. Birthday is in less than 2 hours

. Once I get the car I will be back in the game!

spdy330 · 06-15-2011, 08:36 PM

Well I just got word today that my car has a repair order. Apparently one of the rocker panels has a small ship on it so they ordered a replacement part. I was told the part should arrive by tomorrow and I may have the car earliest on Friday or next week for sure. Based on my luck I think I will not see it till next week. I hope I get it sooner than that. This just stinks!!!!

JB335 · 06-16-2011, 01:36 PM

That's a bummer man. At least it's just the rocker panel and not something more extensive.

spdy330 · 06-16-2011, 02:16 PM

Very true JB335.

spdy330 · 06-16-2011, 06:34 PM

Dealer contacted me today and said my car was just released and will be at the dealer tomorrow. Hopefully they get the Performance Exhaust installed so I can pick up in the evening. I won't get too excited until I get the call to actually come and pick it up.

Looks killer man! Did you keep the 335i?

JB335 · 06-16-2011, 09:42 PM

Nope the 335i lease ends on the 25th. I kept it a few extra weeks to take some of my mods off.

spdy330 · 06-20-2011, 07:43 PM

Still waiting for mine. It was supposed to be in my hands on Friday, never made it to the dealer. Then it was supposed to be today, never made it. Now I hear it is on the truck and will be delivered to the dealer tomorrow. My excitement has become frusteration. Hopefully it will come tomorrow

.

plokij · 06-20-2011, 08:46 PM

that's probably been killing you man.

mine arrived in PH on friday morning, and i already called the dealer today... dude, where's my car??? hahaha.

they said wednesday is likely for the pickup.

can't wait.

spdy330 · 06-20-2011, 09:58 PM

What is killing me is that mine had a chip on the rocker panel so I had to wait a few more days for a replacement part to arrive. Then all these delays to get the car to the dealer. If it arrives tomorrow they still have the performance exhaust to install before I take delivery.

Good luck with yours too!

spdy330 · 06-21-2011, 04:42 PM

Okay my car finally made it to the dealer at noon today. They are installing the BMW Performance Exhaust and I will pick up after 5:30 PM this evening. I hope I am not dreaming

.

Tundra · 06-21-2011, 05:30 PM

My car arrived in port on the 8th... I left for a trip on the same day it arrived at the dealership. It's been waiting for me ever since the 11th.

The good news is tomorrow I'll actually be able to drive over there and pick it up. Now the final question: lease or finance?! I still have this debate with myself every night before I go to bed. I could go either way and be happy, but it's hard to settle on which route to take!
